Magical March Movies – Harry Potter and The Sorcerer’s Stone

Upon his 11th birthday, Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe), who lives in misery with an aunt and uncle that don’t want him, learns from a giant named Hagrid (Robbie Coltrane) that he is the orphaned son of powerful wizards. Harry is offered a place at prestigious Hogwarts, a boarding school for wizards that exists in a realm of magic and fantasy outside the dreary existence of normal humans or “Muggles.” At Hogwarts, Harry quickly makes new friends and begins piecing together the mystery of his parents’ deaths, which appear not to have been accidental after all.

Eddie’s Walk of Life

Sat, 03/09/2019 - 9:00am to 11:00am

Join us on Saturday, March 9th, for Eddie’s Walk of Life starting at the clock tower at Memorial City Central!

On Sunday, November 11, 2018, in honor of Veteran’s Day, retired Marine Eddie deRoulet, a stroke survivor, walked 26.2 miles inside Memorial City Mall. Eddie says told the Houston Chronicle that he wanted to show others that “life could continue after having a stroke or other medical setbacks.”

“I see so many people who say, ‘I’ve had a stroke, and my life is over.’ I say, ‘No, it has changed my life, but it hasn’t taken away from it.”

Memorial City Mall is encouraging others to follow in Eddie’s footsteps.

In addition to the walk around the mall there will be a health fair with booths to check blood pressure, provide education on the risk factors and warning signs of strokes and the resources available to survivors, and breakfast bites for participants.

We will also have information about Memorial City Stride, Memorial City’s free mall walking program which encourages walkers to stay active in a safe, temperature-controlled environment.
